In the past, the village was a working settlement that emerged in the mid-18th century when the extraction of white-pink Tividian marble began. It was located two kilometers from the ancient Karelian village of Tividia. This marble, with its rich color range from almost white to dark cherry, quickly became popular for decorating the palaces and churches of St. Petersburg. By the mid-19th century, there was only one wooden church in White Mountain, rebuilt from a chapel. Due to large state orders for marble, Tividia and White Mountain were often visited by high-ranking officials. In 1853, the Minister of State Properties, Count L. A. Perovsky, arrived here. He found that the old church could not accommodate all the parishioners, and thanks to his advocacy, permission was granted to build a new stone church. The project was developed by State Counselor Konstantin Ton, and the church was consecrated in 1856. It is distinguished by its majestic simplicity and harmony, setting it apart from other churches in the Olonets province.

In T. A. Slavina's monograph "Konstantin Ton," the project of the church at the Tividian marble quarry is mentioned, making it the only monument in Karelia created according to Ton's individual design. The Kazan church is a small pillarless temple with a bell tower above the western entrance. The facades are concise, with expressive decorative details characteristic of Ton: paired windows, pilasters, a decorative drum, an arcature belt, and cornice profiles. The walls of the church are made of brick and plastered, even using molded brick. The church has two brick vaults: a dome and a semi-cylindrical one. A staircase leads to the bell tower, which opens onto a choir balcony. The church has three entrances: western, northern, and southern, all of which had steps made of local marble, which are now missing. The window sills were made of polished marble, and the cornices were made of shungite slabs. Currently, the vaults are leaking due to the lack of a roof, the ceiling beams have partially survived, and only one wrought iron grille remains on a window. The top of the bell tower is covered with boards from the Soviet era. A total of 3423 rubles and 70.5 kopecks were allocated for the construction of the church, and the iconostasis and church utensils cost 1450 rubles. During the Soviet era, the church was converted into a cinema hall, but in the 1970s it became abandoned and began to deteriorate.
